The Joy In My Soul

August 10, 2022August 12, 2022 ElRoyPoet

I want to matter;I want to stay relevant.I keep on talking,I keep on… I’m running out of days.I’m like a falling star,I’m burning out,I can’t stop… Generations comeand generations go. How do I make an impact?How do I keep on … Continue reading The Joy In My Soul

Prideful

August 9, 2022August 10, 2022 ElRoyPoet

There’s a battle raging in my mind,For my brain has chosen guilty pleasure,Instead of being kind.My flesh wants to live,And it will sin,To not be left behind.Because my heart’s wounded,And my spirit’s in a bind. Who can help me,Or is … Continue reading Prideful

christian nationalist

August 2, 2022August 7, 2022 ElRoyPoet

The failure of white evangelicals is that they can’t even restore morality in their churches, but still insist they can restore morality to our nation—that’s why they call themselves ‘christian nationalist’. It’s like ‘putting the cart—before the horse’, tragically the only direction … Continue reading christian nationalist

Conscientious Objector

July 31, 2022August 3, 2022 ElRoyPoet

I’m a man of compassion,not of micro-aggressions. I’m a bridge builder,not a community wrecker. I love peace and love,I hate war and hate. I’ve been around the world—my plight is still the same:there’s predators, chemicals,catastrophes and disease—all are out to … Continue reading Conscientious Objector

Climate Change

July 30, 2022August 6, 2022 ElRoyPoet

I’ve traveled across many galaxies.I’ve seen stars glow brightAnd others go dim.It’s also been my experience,That a sun burns hotter,Before it burns out.I’ve even seen frozen planetsSwallowed whole,By the very same darkened hole. By: ElRoyPoet © 2020 Will America’s disregard … Continue reading Climate Change

Finish Strong

July 24, 2022July 25, 2022 ElRoyPoet

As I travel down this road,I wonder where I’ll go,I wonder where it’ll take me,I wonder if I’ll know—when to stop and when to go,or if i should just turn— to the right or to the left,what is right and … Continue reading Take The Romans Road

Guardians Of Democracy

July 16, 2022August 5, 2022 ElRoyPoet

Just because I was born with supremacist and nationalist tendencies:It doesn’t mean, I can be trusted to rule the world.So why would I allow a populist—worse than I—to be the boss of me?It’s asinine to ever imagine, that it would … Continue reading Guardians Of Democracy

Good Samaritan

July 2, 2022August 6, 2022 ElRoyPoet

If I practice random acts of kindness,am I unkind, most of the time? Yes, but who can judge me, if in my mind, I can’t understand,why it weighs heavy on my heart? Spanish Translation El Buen Samaritano ¿Si practico actos … Continue reading Good Samaritan
